My personal relationship with antique, natural dyed Persian and Turkish rugs began when I was 5 years old.
I grew up in Northern Syria.
It had one of the largest Armenian communities in the Middle East; and combined with the Kurdish weavers in the area; traditional rug weaving was everywhere.
I saw the rug makers almost daily on every corner.
I remember the process of my mother commissioning a rug for our home very well.
We took weekly trips to check on the progress.
I had the privilege of watching the rug making from beginning to end.

Are you talking about Antique Oriental Rugs or New World Rugs?
I often travel to major rug producing regions to purchase hand made oriental rugs, textiles, folk art and ceramics.
I also know people who scout the world for Antique Oriental Rugs.
They advertise in the Middle East.
They go door-to-door and ask "Do you have any old rugs for sale?"

During the 20th century, the designs and styles of antique Persian and Turkish Oriental rugs began to change as western demand turned tribal cottage industries into commercial productions.
Pressure to meet world market demand challenged the weavers ability to preserve traditional antique Oriental rug design and master craft techniques.
As time passes, antique Oriental Rugs become even more beautiful, rare and valuable.
It's not just about age.
Hand knotted Persian and Turkish Antique Oriental rugs prepared the traditional way using a combination of 100% organic natural dyes and hand spun wool and silk, have a more lustrous patina and depth due to oxidation with the air and sun over the long run.
